Machine learning fairness research documents trade-offs but lacks quantitative frameworks to measure intrinsic metric compatibility without requiring causal graphs. We introduce a game-theoretic framework that decomposes metrics into interaction vectors, enabling compatibility measurement between me…
Vision-Language Models (VLMs), leveraging their powerful visual perception and reasoning capabilities, have been widely applied in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) tasks.However, the spatial intelligence capabilities of existing VLMs in UAV scenarios remain largely unexplored, raising concerns about th
Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have opened new opportunities for embodied intelligence, enabling multimodal understanding, reasoning, and interaction, as well as continuous spatial decision-making. Nevertheless, current MLLM-based embodied systems face two critical limit…
High-definition (HD) maps are essential for autonomous driving, yet multi-modal fusion often suffers from inconsistency between camera and LiDAR modalities, leading to performance degradation under low-light conditions, occlusions, or sparse point clouds. To address this, we propose SEF-MAP, a Subsp…
Deployable service and delivery robots struggle to navigate multi-floor buildings to reach object goals, as existing systems fail due to single-floor assumptions and requirements for offline, globally consistent maps. Multi-floor environments pose unique challenges including cross-floor transitions
Embodied navigation is a fundamental capability that enables embodied agents to effectively interact with the physical world in various complex environments. However, a significant gap remains between current embodied navigation tasks and real-world requirements, as existing methods often struggle t
Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have catalyzed numerous efforts to apply these technologies to embodied tasks, with a particular focus on high-level task planning and task decomposition. LLMs face challenges in understanding the physical world, especially regarding spatial, tempo
Vision-language navigation (VLN) is a key task in Embodied AI, requiring agents to navigate diverse and unseen environments while following natural language instructions. Traditional approaches rely heavily on historical observations as spatio-temporal contexts for decision making, leading to signif…
"Spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer an energy-efficient alternative to conventional deep learning by emulating the event-driven processing manner of the brain. Incorporating Transformers with SNNs has shown promise for accuracy. However, they struggle to learn high-frequency patterns, such as movi…
Navigating toward specific objects in unknown environments without additional training, known as Zero-Shot object navigation, poses a significant challenge in the field of robotics, which demands high levels of auxiliary information and strategic planning. Traditional works have focused on holistic…
